        <pre>The destructor for a function parameter is called at the wrong time. We delay
until the end of the full-expression containing the call, but the parameter's
lifetime is supposed to end when the function returns. For instance:

  #include <stdio.h>
  struct X {
    const char *p;
    ~X() { puts(p); }
  };
  void f(X, X) {}
  int main() {
    f({"1"}, X{"3"}), X{"2"};
  }

is required to print:

  1
  2
  3

but clang (and edg and g++) print:

  2
  3
  1

and MSVC will presumably print:

  1
  3
  2

(Note that braced initialization of the parameter does not create a temporary.
The same effect can be seen by passing a local variable of type X to the
function.)

If we get this right, we can reduce stack usage in some cases, so it's worth
investigating whether real code will be broken by this.</pre>
